He had a hungry hollow holler
He was hell in seventh gear
He was slowing down for no one
It had always been his year
Confidence was never sweeter
Just as sweet as it could get
But his earning every penny
His heart harbors heavy debt
And I say
"I can't keep up anymore
I can't keep up."
We're all dying; he'll die younger
While he's still a pretty man
Cause there's nothing after thirty
That has always been his plan
When your heroes fell in glory
And you're tracing every move
Well, you gotta have that story
Like you didn't even choose
And I say
"I can't keep up."
But you think that I was wrong
Were my words misunderstood?
I can't keep up anymore
I can't keep up
When we look back
Weren't we ever friends?
Could you understand?
When we look back
Weren't we ever friends?
Could you understand?
Well, I'm not one to write in fiction
Others, they may make predictions
I think you know I did all I could
Well, I think you know I did all I could
Well, I think you know I did all I could
All I could"¦
I can't keep up
But you think that I gave in
Were my promises not made good?
I can't keep up anymore
I can't keep up anymore
I can't keep up anymore
(Well, I think you know I did all I could.)
I can't keep up anymore
(Well, I think you know I did all I could.)
(I can't keep up anymore.)
(Well, I'm not one to write in fiction
Others, they may make predictions.)
(I can't keep up anymore.)
I think you know I did all I could
